Meditation is not really that hard. After all, it is just sitting with our thoughts. But often we are used to ignoring our thoughts. In the case of cPTSD the thoughts insist on being heard.

Most people don't continue meditating if a lot of unresolved issues keep coming up. That is why it is much better to find someone to work with -- or really two people --- a certified meditation instructor and a therapist.

"Meditation Light" might work for people with moderate anxiety. But trauma and other issues need different kinds of attention.

If someone with cPTSD works with a therapist, the therapist should be made aware that meditation and other mindfulness and DBT practices might very well be like someone suggesting putting a band aid on a festering wound. It is cruel.
